What is the availability like for United domestic award seats for KF members? Due to poor availability of DL flights using velocity pts, I am considering converting the VFF to KF even though I will loose 98,000 in the conversion but not much point if seat availability just as limited with...

I have 328,000 VFF that I was looking to use to book Delta domestic economy flights but from all I am reading across various boards here, the odds aren't good as Delta seem to release very few reward seats to VA. Would my odds of getting a US domestic reward seat be improved if I changed my VFF...

Have managed to book domestic Delta flights with VFF points so thought booking AA with QFF would be just as easy- how wrong am I !! Im trying to look into what points are need for a variety of US domestic flights and with QF points to burn for this trip, am looking at using QFF points. I can't...

have always been selecting the points + pay option. the columns that do show i.e. premium saver, business saver, are in points on the screen so that button has been checked.

Have just got on VFF to check seat release availabilty and the " reward" columns for economy, PE and business are gone, not even a column showing "sold out" . Back dated a few dates and all gone. Does this mean that ALL reward seats have to be booked over the phone and not online anymore?

Looking to purchase business reward seats Syd to Lax for family of 5 in next week or so. We are prepared to split up to fly and can be flexible with a few days but am realistically expecting to not get enough business reward seats if any, first up but am prepared to purchase PE or economy with...

Wanting to fly Dec 14-17 this year and then return 18-20 Jan 2017. Maybe I'm just too far out for everywhere looking 330 days in advance??

thanks everyone, this has been really helpful in reducing the stress levels.

Thanks so much.I had read those rules in my investigations but didnt know if exchanging from premium economy to business was considered an upgrade using points? or is the fact that Im exchanging for an actual business reward seat( vs upgrading to business when no business award seat is...

If there are no business reward seats when they are release, if I buy a PE reward seat and a business one later comes available, can I exchange directly over the phone? Or do I need to arches the new business one and get a refund on the PE one as separate transactions? Need to know as an...

Coming up the pointy end of my nearly 3 year planning and flights will open up for purchase in the next couple of weeks. My family of 5 are prepared to break up and go on different flights but as I am expecting not to get all of us into business class straight away (if ever) , am I allowed to...

Following this thread and yours in particular struck home: if you are trying to book it online and can't progress due to a webpage problem, is that a good enough reason for them to waive the phone booking fee?

Having some trouble with booking a seat with the points + pay option on the VA website. I have enough points accumulated to do the points part of the transaction and am wanting to pay the cash portion when the final payment screen comes up as it states will occur but because I don't have enough...

Thanks for the help. Appreciate it :)
